SHORTHAND REPORTING MACHINE.

enonIdAND hEFOHTIN6 hACHINE.
The cut here given represents one Of these
shorthand machines, and following IL what
Paper and Press says about it: The secret of
the speed Of which the machine is capable Is
found in the fact that the keys are so ar
ranged that any one, or more, or all Of them
may be struck at single impulse Of the
hand, without moving the fingers from one
key to another, while in typewriter only
one key at time can be struck, and the fin
gers are constantly moving from one key, to
another. An additional advantage claimed
for this machine is the fact that the notes
may be read by any one who understands the
system as well as by the writer. Instead Of
using the shorthand characters, with their in
finite variety Of stems and attachments, it
employs only the Roman letters in their
ordinary form.

A Watch for the Blind.

A watch for the blind has recently been
patented by a Connecticut genius, which is
so constructed that the time may be told in
the dark, or by person quite devoid of sight.
The works of the watch, says The Scientific
American, are covered below the hands by q
plate on which is formed a small dial Each
hand is formed with knob or projection at
its end, and over the hands is placed con-
cave disk, composed of several concentric an
nular rings spaced to form annular slots, in
which the upwardly projecting knobs of the
hands move SO that they can be felt by the
finger through the slots, and their relative po-
sition on the dial determined by the sense of
touch s-a et3

In a Tight Fix.


From the Antericits (Gd.) Republican,
Our Cotton Avenue story teller has given
US another of the old time incidents that
may while away an idle moment He says
that man was living in the lower edge of
the county when Roanoke was burnt by the
Indians, and joined in with the force who
was sent against them. One morning he
and another man got separated from the
command, and while following their trail
was suddenly confronted by some ten or
twelve savages who were probably
hundred yards off. They both
turned to flee, when the Indian4
fired on them. His companion fell
dead, but he sped ON, and the In
dams followed. He got into a thicket
and lodged hither and thither, and at last
found an old hollow log of huge proportion,
into which he crept. After awhile he heard
an Indian tramping around. He approached
the log, got on it, walked 10 the end and sat
down The man in the log was scared very
much, but kept quiet The Indian sat
few minutes got up and left, and pretty
soon another one came along He, too, sat
on the log and then followed III the tracks
of the other fellow. The hidden man began
to breathe easier, when be again heard the
tramp, tramp, tramp of the third Indian,
who came up TO the log, looked around, sat
down for some time and then went i'll the
direction the other two had taken. He still
lay quiet in his log for some time, when
hearing nothing else from his foes he began
to pull out. when Off in the distance he
heard them beating the bushes and at the
same time his eyes fell on large rattle.
snake coiled up at the mouth of the log
He was now indeed prisoner and he dared
not move TheIndians drew nearer, com
ing this time toward the entrance Of
his hiding-place, The snake heard
them raised its head and
gently shook its tail. The Indians, three in
number, heard the warning, and came
nearer The RATHER then commenced his
music in earnest. and was killed by the In
dams, but it seems that they took its pres
ence at the end OF the log as a surety that
the person they were seeking was not there,
and soon after went away. The fellow
stuck to his hole until night fell, when he
crawled out and lit out for home where he
sfaid until be died few years AGO.

A DOG That Chews Gum.



1t has been thought that pug dogs were
the stupdeSt of all the species of CANNES,
but my attention was called to one of them
the other night which is either gifted with
remarkable sense. or great injustice has
been done the black-faced, snub-nosed pets.
What is Lady chewing!" | asked of her
owner.
''Tolu.
"Toluw
Eyes, she has formed strong passion for
chewing gum, and will sit in the corner
masticating for hours at time, and the
oldest part of it is that she will not chew
the stuff before strangers"
To test this walked into the room where
the pug was working away at a piece of
gum, and, sure enough, as soon as she saw
me she ran to a corner, and in few mo-
ments returned minus the tolu. Upon in
vestgation, l found it stuck under chair
lust as natural as if the average young girl
had placed it there How on earth the dog
had learned that chewing gum in public
was not considered nice | do not know, but
she seemed so conscious of having been guilty
of breach, that ] almost thought | could
perceive a slight blush steal stealthily from
behind the mole.

horror. In the dim light cslld plainly see
that there was only man ilfide, and from
his strange position knew omething was
wrong. When l threw opa the door
found the only occupant of the stage was
the man who was going to buy the mines
He was stone dead and cod. His throat
had been cut from ear to en-. There was
no doubt that my tenderfof was the muir
derer, and after killing his fellow traveller
and securing his belt with 5he money, he
had crawled through the rear window
of the stage and dropped off into the
road. He had evidently takn the journey
with the sole purpose of Committing the
murder and taking the plundr. When we
carried the dead man into tie station we
found Capt. Rawlins of the Dlnver mounted
police force and three of his men, who were
out hunting for desperadoes. They immedi-
ately gave up all other business and started
III pursuit Of the murderer. The result of
the hunt heard from the captain himself.
Half way between the two stations he found
by the roadside a place where campfire
had been built, and where two horses had
evidently been tied to a tree. By the side
OF the fire was the murdered mans empty
belt. For four days the CAPTAIN and his
three men followed the trail oil the murderer
and his companions through the mountains.
AT last one night, just befolp dark, they
came upon the desperadoes in noun
tain gorge. Both men were seated on
the ground Cautiously the captain and his
men crept up to the unconscious ruffians.
Each officer brought his gun to hear on one
of the men, and then Capt. Raviins called
on them to surrender. Without sn instant's
hesitation each man grabbed lis gun and
opened fire on the officers AT the first dis
charge from the officers the MAJ who COM
mitted the murder fell, and a moment later
his companion lay stretched onthe ground
beside him. On examining them, Capt.
Rawlins found that the younger man, who
had been on the stage, was not quite dead.
Toward morning the young man revived
sufficiently to talk. He refused TO give his
nctue and it was never known. He said,
However, that Amos V. Townsend was the
leader of the gang, and had planned the
murder, and commissioned him to execute
it, On the other man papers were found
which proved beyond question that Town
send was indeed the villain which the dying
murderer said he was
Capt. Rawlins waited until his prisoner
died and then fastened to Denver to arrest
Townsend. He found the old murderer in
his shop and quickly put him Under arrest :"
Here the old man stretched himself, and
slowly descended from his seat. But" said
